500 is a server error, it usually happens when GitHub server encounters a problem and is down. You can check github status website to keep track.
Usually problems like this should already be reported; all you have to do is wait for the server to recover then everything should work. In the meantime you can of course, still commit and work locally in git.
Error 500 is usually an error on GitHub side.
You can read GitHub Status here: https://www.githubstatus.com/
If that is down too, check Twitter: https://www.twitter.com/githubstatus
If even that brings no answers, search on Twitter: https://www.twitter.com/search?q=GitHub%20500%20error
Check also on GitHub subreddit (https://old.reddit.com/r/github) if people are going crazy.
If you have a VPN try logging as other countries to see if it's just you or everyone.
